Book excerpt: Valiunas argues that the defining feature of Churchill's histories is the way in which they maintain an aristocratic perspective on democratic times without losing their democratic sympathies. Churchill's histories are largely tales of war, and they delineate the actions of great captains and political men, but they also honor the heroism of ordinary men, individually and on masse.".
